Get ready to loosen your belts, Slab Square's next big event will be a foodie's paradise with Spanish, Greek, Chinese and Jamaican street foods among the treats to try.

Market Place Europe will be taking over the heart of the city from Wednesday, March 27 to Sunday, March 31 and there will even be a continental street bar flogging a variety of beers and wine to help all that delicious grub go down.

For those wanting to take the flavours of the world home with them there will be a huge selection of fresh foods including olives, cheeses, breads and cakes available to buy alongside arts, crafts and gift stalls.

Shoppers will be in their element with a massive range of jewellery, clothing, Fair Trade wooden carvings and handmade ceramics, not forgetting the gigantic Dutch Flowers on Tour with a range of bulbs, flowers, plants and garden furniture, all transported from Holland.

Andy Pidgen, Market Place Europe’s new operations manager, said: “Nottingham is a fantastic city and I have been many times, but this will be my first time with our famous International Market.

"We are visiting Nottingham a few times throughout the year as I know the market always receives such a great reception and is very popular with our global traders and the many members of the public who visit.

"We have some fantastic traders joining us this March and there will definitely be something for everyone to enjoy at this fantastic family friendly event.”

The market will be open from 9am to 6pm, Wednesday-Saturday, and 10am to 5pm on Sunday but if foodies can't make those the continental pop-up will be returning to Nottingham June 20-23 and September 25–29.
